- Mitt Romney’s Pattern of Homophobia : Delaware Liberal | May 11, 2012
FYI, this is the same guy with a Twitter problem – http://delawareliberal.net//2012/04/21/new-romney-spokesman-used-twitter-for-sexist-attacks/
Was it for being gay or for being totally asinine misogynist?
I would have fired him too…
Supposedly he wasn’t fired. Supposedly they tried to keep him.
My money is on the conservative wing that got him canned, because they hate teh gays.
While I have no doubt Grenell was dumped for his sexual orientation, he also wasn’t very effective on foreign policy and national security. The Soviets are our biggest threat and we aren’t protecting Czechoslovakia? Come on.
The Christian Media was all over this. It was inventible that he wouldn’t last.
Dumping your foreign policy advisor for being gay is kind of like dumping your attorney for being a lousy cook.
The more and more we see, this whole GOP is just a sham…. like a mirage, apparently there is no substance there…
“We have a great staff..” “Oh, you’re gay?” “But you were doing such great work, how could you possibly be gay? Can you lie about it, date women or something till the election?”
“Well, then, in that case you’re fired. You were lousy any way. We’re not firing you because you’re gay. We’re firing you because you don’t know, or refuse to do your job. Get him outta here…”
I’m sure I’m the only American alive today who thinks Romney is nothing but an opportunist… If so, so be it.
